So much for democracy. Now who wants to vote Conservatives? Sending in muscle to bully students around doesn't work. Now let's here want the Conservatives say after Elections Canada declared the vote legit.

You can't count those votes. If it's been tampered with, they are to be declared null votes. It sucks that people have to stoop so low and ruin something like that. That could actually cost the Liberal or Conservatives a seat. I agree that it shouldn't count as it has been touched and it reminds me of Middle Eastern voting. There are processes to be followed and need to be followed so each vote counts fairly and honestly.

He gives grants and money for skilled trades. Liberals would just increase taxes like they always do, to pay for these stupid billions that they want to throw away to people. He says he wants to give each student 1grand a year for university. To bad it's provincially regulated and not federally regulated so that promise is thrown out the window, and also that means there is no more tax breaks for students as they will be abolished.

I like some of the ideas, but they will never happen because of the way this country is already established. I'd rather keep Harper in power and not run this country into more debt.

someone, after yelling and claiming it was 'illegal', tried to seize the Ballot Box & the Votes, the 1st votes of the Election!

At what point did that video say the guy was yelling?
Also I'm not sure why someone from the conservative party would try to seize ballot box unless there was reason to suspect that there was some sort biased election material present at the voting station. There was obviously a reason for it. Allegedly there was partisan election material present at the voting station (a violation of the Canada Elections Act), which must have been anti-conservative to prompt the action.

The details on this story are still blurry so I'm not going to be as quick as you to judge.

"To defeat evil, we may have to traffic in evils: indefinite detention of suspects, coercive interrogations, targeted assassinations, even pre-emptive war."
New York Times magazine op-ed piece, May 2, 2004

The dilemmas here are best illustrated by looking closely at pre-emptive war. It is a lesser evil because, according to our traditional understanding of war, the only justified resort to war is a response to actual aggression. But those standards are outdated. They were conceived for wars against states and their armies, not for wars against terrorists and suicide bombers. Against this kind of enemy, everyone can see that instead of waiting for terrorists to hit us, it makes sense to get our retaliation in first.

I think it comes down to the cognitive dissonance of watching young people or working class people voting the same as or supporting the policies that millionaires and billionaires bribe politicians to enact. It shows a complete lack of education on their part and demonstrates the true power these rich bastards have over the information people receive. Just look at the Tea Party... here you have a bunch of rednecks who can't even spell a sign right that are voting with billionaires to ship their jobs overseas.

That is cognitive dissonance right there - voting to see your own job and your country's economy destroyed because Glenn Beck told you that if you don't, the muslim caliphate, led by Barack Obama, will break into your house, give you healthcare and ruin the world.

A friend of mine wrote that, he lives in the USA. Clearly there are many differences between USA and Canada, but, there are many similarities. Conservatives trying to mimick the republics. I'm not saying that the Liberal party is a better choice either.

Infact, the truth is, we have no true choice. It doesn't matter who wins, we all lose because we live in a country that is just too divided in thoughts and processes and we cannot create a common ground. We live in a society in which everyone, or at least most people, just want to get "theirs" and **** everyone else. Instead of working for the betterment of society, we work for perpetuating the gains of the few. Instead of spreading the wealth, we freely give it to the 1%. And the best thing about it, we FIGHT each other. We fight amongst the middle class and lower class to GIVE and GET those tax benefits that ONLY HELP the elite rich to begin with. Lol, ya, capital gains tax, and dividen tax and corporate tax. Oh I forgot, corporations gotta make profits... And heaven forbid I dont get my capital gains tax on those stocks I buy and sell. Ya because the 5,000$ in my trading account is worth a damn compared to the 50 million that the 1 man traded.

Oh, there is so much more we could be doing, but clearly that level of thought is socialist, stupid, and at the end of the day greed rules out.
